Default Car problem question

Our other car is a '97 Cavalier. It's been leaking some type of fluid for a couple of weeks. I was going to make an appointment to have it looked at somewhere but thought I would check the fluid levels to see if I could tell what exaclty is leaking. I'm about as mechanically inclined as a chimpanzee and I mean no disrespect to Chimps.

I open up the hood and notice that there appears to be a cap missing and fluid around the open, threaded whole. The oil, power steering and brake fluid caps are all there so I assume it is the transmission fluid cap. I have no idea what happened to it. The only thing I can figure out is that they checked it the last time I got the oil changed and then forgot to put it back on. That was almost 5 months ago and I don't think it's been leaking nearly that long.

Anywho, I was just wondering if anybody knows where I can find a diagram of the engine compartment to see which cap is really missing and where do I go to get a replacement. I don't know what happened to the book that came with the car.

Thanks in advance.
